A particularly ingenious A.R.P. Idea which at- tracted much attention at the British Industries fair: A shelter protected by a mound of concrete balis designed to delect a direct hit.
Some of the Z-ewi, concréte slabs which are be- ing used to cover the trenches in Green Park. A.R.P. is at long last begbining to make real strides Throughout Britain; the movement will probably end by out-stripping all other countries, which have hitherto concentrated on elaborate gas-maskery and black-outs.
One of many A.H.P. devices exhibited In the Birmingham section of the British Industries Fair, A shelter unk beneath the ground and covɩred, with sand- bars.

St. Andrew's Church stands beside the Queen's Avenue on the site of the Iron Church, which dated from Crini. cán days and remained l 1926, The new St. Andrew's Church la a memorial to the war dead of the Church of Scotland and kindred churches throughout the Empire. It was opened by the Princess Royal in 1927.
Begun in the "Munich" days these air-raid pre- caution trenches In the square outside South Ken- sington Underground station are now being com- picted. The original hasilly-installed timberwork has been laken out, being replaced with steel arches of approved design. When the work is finished the shelters will be well hidden and it is probable that a small garden will appear above them.
